I have adult friends that say that they just don't like the idea of not knowing the person behind the clown. My friend told me it would weird her out to have someone talking to her like they know her but then have no idea who it was.
So maybe it's the unknown that bothers people and thus causes them to be afraid of clowns. You just never know what a clown may do. That is their thinking and they don't want to be made fun of or causes to see silly.
That is just what I am gathering from people. Also I know someone afraid of clowns that I think is just a control issue. She don't have control of the situation when a clown is around.
These are just my observations.
